Two Months N.M

Devon Devereaux

I made sure the towel was secured around me before opening the door letting all the hot air exit the bathroom.

I walked to my room opening the door then closing it behind me. I went over to my suitcase crouching down to pull out joggers, underwear and a sports bra.

"I didn't know you just walked around your room in a towel, I like it." Nate's voice filled my ears. I turned around confused and see Nate on the other side of my bed.

"Where'd you come from?" I asked confused and holding onto the pair of joggers I just grabbed, Nate spoke before I could grab underwear and a sports bra.

"Oh baby, have you never gotten the birds and the bees talk?" He asked putting a innocent look on his face.

I rolled my eyes and laughed throwing the only thing I had in my hand, my joggers. "Your an idiot."

He smiled big now holding my joggers. "I was getting your charger that fell behind the bed." He gestured to the charger on the bed.

I crouched back down looking for what I needed. "No, why are you here here?" I asked.

"What you don't want me here?" He asked, I could hear the offended tone in his voice.

"No, no, Nate." I said shaking my head and standing up holding the rest of my clothes. "I meant, I figured you'd be with the dummies out there," I gestuted toward the door. "Or with Derek and them getting high."

"Well I'm here." He smiled.

I rolled my eyes. "No shit." I laughed and pulled my underwear up my legs still with the towel around me.

He laughed as I turned around my back to Nate who was laying on his back. I dropped the towel and pulled my sports bra on. I fixed the straps and unrolled the bottom of it.

When I was just about done I was lifted off the ground and on the bed, on my back.

"So," he said on top of me like it was nothing.

"So?" I asked when he didn't continue.

"Rupp is DJing at a club tomorrow night and Luh and I are performing, you wanna go?" He asked.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah?" He questioned. He sighed. "You don't what to go because of what Rupp said, huh?" He rolled off of me.

"No, I just don't want to go if you don't want me to." I told him answering him and sitting up.

He sat up and looked at me. "Listen, what Rupp had said it-"

I stood up. "I told you it was nothing." I grabbed my joggers and finally finished getting dress.

"Well, I don't think it was." He told me.

"I think it was." I said. I grabbed the towel i used and started to air dry my hair.

"But it wasn't. He shouldn't of said that."

I sighed and walked put of the room to the bathroom him following me. "It's true though." I placed my towel on the counter and got my toothbrush putting toothpaste on it.

"No." He furrowed his eyebrows giving me a  confused look as to why I said that.

"Yes, Nate it is." I said and started to brush my teeth.

"What Rupp said to you is not true, Devon." He leaned on the doorway.

"Mhm,"

"Devon, seriously it's not." He continued.
